Anonymous Well worth a stay: 19 November 2011; 9.4; + My stay at the Bastion Hotel was very comfortable,exhalent and helpful staff. Buffet breakfast was good. Dinner very enjoyable. The rooms are clean, well prepared. All you need for a brirf stay.; - A little far from the airport.

Anonymous Reliable and convenient: 2 November 2011; 8.2; + Airport shuttle is convenient and punctual.

Jeannette Perea The Bastion Hotel, good location and great staff.: 22 July 2011; 8.6; + The staff was very friendly and helpful. I have workded for the past 16 years at a historic hotel in California and would recommend anyone of them as an excellent employee. Great shuttle service too.; - I'm not a fan of instant coffee. I would prefer a coffee maker in the room.

Anonymous A reasonably priced hotel convenient for Schiphol airport: 27 June 2011; 9.2; + Friendly and helpful reception. Nice restaurant room to have a quiet drink.; - Our bed mattresses were too soft for our liking.

VLADIMIR VACA Pleasant hotel, good location for visit not only Amsterdam.: 17 April 2011; 8.8; + - very good breakfast - agreable and disposed staff - enaugh parking place; - - missing internet connection in the rooms

Stefan Thoroddsen Bastion Hotel: 13 August 2010; 8.6; + The staff were really helpful when I had some troubles with my reservation. Everyone I talked to were really nice and made me feel like at home.; - My shower did not work that well. I had to spend about 5 minutes adjusting the heat of the water, and when I got it right, the shower water pressure was too low.

William Allan Mayer A nice hotel to layover at between flights: 11 June 2010; 8.6; + Shuttle to Amsterdam Airport, good food and pleasant staff. Free Internet also a plus

Patricia G Never again!: 6 June 2010; 4.8; + Quick and easy from Schiphol.; - Beds small, not comfortable, duvets VERY tiny, but worst of all, hotel VERY noisy no matter which floor or area I've stayed in. This was my fourth and last time there!

Rosa Medina Bad deal hotel...: 5 May 2010; 3.4; + Location was good; - Bed conforters looked worned out and had spots. Beds really small. Price too high for this type of very low quality hotel. Selected this because it was the only one available for my immediate need. Won't stay there again.

Richard Foote Cold and unwelcoming: 13 April 2010; 4.8; + I cannot find much to say that is positive. It was clean is about all.; - The hotel was miles out of the way, not at the airport at all. the bar and restaurant were cold and unattractive. The restraurant more like a works canteen. The bar showed the same level of austerity. I wanted to stay at the Bastion Schiphol Airport which I now understand has been re-named as a best Western but still has the Bastion sign outside.

PG: 18 February 2010; 7.2; + A five minute walk from the Red Bus (300) from Schiphol -- easy if you don't drive. And that stop also takes you into Haarlem City Centre (must go).; - Beds uncomfortable, LOTS of noise all night (VERY thin ceilings and walls). More importantly, charged 10 Euros per night more than quoted, even though desk clerk had the lower rate on a paper in front of him (he said it was a 5 euro foreign tourist tax, which was not listed on my reservation or his sheet, and the other 5 he just had to charge me unless he could email his manager, and did I want to sit in the lobby and wait for the reply? With no other hotel to go to at 6 pm, I paid).

Herman Friendly and convenient: 4 February 2010; 8.6; + Good and friendly service; - No double bed; beds very separate

Daniel: 21 August 2008; 3.2; + Very clean Hotel, good comfort, very good breakfast, shuttle service to airport, good parking facilities; - breakfast too expensive

Jetske Insinger A Hotel to recommend to every one: 17 August 2008; 8.4; + The shuttle bus was excellent! The computer a big help. Staff very helpful They also were apologetic about the wrong room.; - I asked for a particular room and asked my sister to check, who lives there, and.... I called from the US. This was not done!!!. Not enough towels for 2 people. The shampoo was also tooooo little and I have short hair. No wash cloths. These are simple items to correct and make it better.

Christopher Zammit Good value for money, very good location to explore Amsterdam: 12 August 2008; 8.4; + nice green surroundings wonderful lcd tv strong water pressure kettle available free safe in room clean and spacious room shuttle bus to and from airport every 30 mins; - too many doors in corridor, had to open 5/6 doors before arriving at our room

utomo: 13 July 2008; 6.6; + The bastion concept is similar to the US Motel chains, only there is an additional service such as a fairly good restaurant for lunch and dinners. Good prospects, as long as yoiu keep the personel at a low level; - Yur breakfast in Bastion Geleen and Bastion Hoofddorp is exactly the same. But the price differs a lot. In Geleen it was 10 Eu and in Hoofddorop 15 Eu. This is NOT good, Should be the same.

Margaret Baldry: 9 June 2008; 9.0; + Free shuttle, cleanliness efficiency of staff, ease of registering; - Having to obtain a hairdryer from reception

Jurgen: 2 June 2008; 8.0; + I stayed at the bastion delux hotel (best western) and this was excellent. Close by Schiphol. And with AC for the hot summer days.

Seymour Morris: 23 May 2008; 5.6; + Free shuttle to airport.; - Terrible service and overcharged in dining room. Understaffed at the time of our stay.

Dudley R. Hartel: 6 May 2008; 7.6; + Close to bus transit (to Haarlam), close to train stations at Haarlam & Schiphol. Den Haag is easily reached by train from Haarlam. Large park within walking distance (<1 km) and also close to Hoofddorf business district (1.5 km) with grocery stores.; - Need easy/available bike rentals (or white bikes) for guests.

Andrew: 6 January 2008; 8.2; + very pleasant staff, good accommodation for the price; - Restaurant ok but could do with more choice

Shaun Balding: 8 October 2007; 7.8; + nice freindly staff always willing to help; - need to bigger menu in the resturant

J D O'Connor: 30 September 2007; 9.6; + Would definitely stay with you again; - Bede very soft and pillow hard

Frank Schoonbaert: 23 September 2007; 6.4; + Convenient for Schiphol due to Hotel shuttle. It is clean and rooms are small but practical.; - Claims to have wireless Internet, but the infratructure is so poor that you should thank God if you actually get access for more than a minute or so. Also they block POP3 email. So Business travellers better stay away. This is a very basic Hotel and I would not stay there for more than 1 night for the purtpose of catching an early flight.

Clen van Kleef: 16 September 2007; 7.8; + very good shuttle service from and to the airport the drivers are real ambassadors for the hotel

shaun balding: 28 August 2007; 7.6; + very friendly and helpful staff, make the stay enjoyable; - need wider restraunt menu

shaun balding: 4 June 2007; 9.0; + good all round hotel and helpful staff; - restraunt service a bit slow

kenneth hood: 3 June 2007; 9.0; + Breakfast was great, taxi was choice.

peter: 4 February 2007; 4.6; + price; - noisy

David Barr: 5 December 2006; 10; + Excellent service, clean comfortable room and wireless internet that works in the room.

Ugur Selim Etlik: 29 November 2006; 8.2; + The crew at bastion hotel haarlem was very kind to me. They tried to help me for every kind of my questions. I felt very confortable there because of them. thank you.; - I made a reservation for Bastion hotel at schiphol because it is close to the place I want to go. But when I went there I saw that my reservation is sold at 18:40 although I had called them for being late. So I had to stay at haarlem bastion hotel. I spent 2 hours at bus per day to go to hoofddorp.

ir. G.I. Moerdijk: 20 November 2006; 7.4; + small&compact; shuttle service; - no non-smoking section in the restaurant; little leisure facilities

Ing. T.P. Kuipers: 20 November 2006; 6.8; + Quiet place, good to reach.; - Nothing to do in the evenings except for sitting at the bar.

HEYNINCK LOUISA: 19 November 2006; 7.4; + everyone very kind and helpfull !; - bathroom i.e. shower... poor quality and NO hairdryer....

Edip CURA: 19 November 2006; 3.8; + Price was cheap compared to any hotels within 5 km range,, but price / quality coparision says that I had to prefer a more professional - normal hotel.; - No dedicated staff for serving restaurant, and I had to wait 15 minutes till a staff comes to get any menu, and 15 minutes to tell the order, I estimated that service would be slow so better to order only soup and salat, and soup can be only brought after 20 minutes and I cancelled the salat. Security for doors was very bad. Not possible to get freash air by opening a window.

Richard Von Korff and Cecilia Potts: 4 November 2006; 6.4; + Hotel staff polite, pleasant and helpful. A plus.; - Shuttle too small. For someone unfamiliar with Hotelmay not realize the need to make reservation for shuttle in order to make connection with transportation at Schiphol. Overall convenience and price not equal to that at the Ibis

Mrs. G.Zeedzen: 30 October 2006; 6.4; + Friendly and quick service.; - From the room at night you hear a lot of noise from the bar and from guests coming to their rooms.

Johan B. Olsen: 25 October 2006; 8.8; + Location next to the large park is nice, and added eating locations nearby is an improvement. We always have felt most welcome by the friendly staff.; - Wish the hotel was a bit closer to downtown Hoofddorp, or that a shuttle service there would be available.

Geraldine OShea Miller: 19 October 2006; 6.4; + Most staff was very pleasant. Beautiful outdoor dining area and view. Quiet.; - We waited at the hotel shuttle stop at the airport with other guests for 20 minutes. Finally, someone spotted our driver across the road, smoking. We all had to carry our bags over to him and load up ourselves. My traveling companion was disabled. The four doors we had to go through on our hotel floor just to get to our room with our luggage was an ordeal. No air conditioning.

David Phillips: 9 October 2006; 7.6; + Very good location to visit all surrounding areas.; - The breakfast are very expense at 11 euro.

Ralph Slooten: 19 September 2006; 7.0; + Er was bijna geen herrie van buitenaf door de goede isolatie. Verder prima hotel voor een doorreis.; - We vonden het erg lastig door alle branddeuren te gaan met onze 4 koffers. (wij zaten in een kamer achterin het hotel). Wij werden 3 uur voor aankomst gebeld of we niet in een ander hotel konden. Terwijl wij juist deze lokatie hadden gekozen voor zijn shuttle mogelijkheid en afstand. Gelukkig was het optioneel, en zijn we toch in dit hotel gebleven. Het was wel erg kort aangegeven.

Laura: 15 September 2006; 4.0; + Free wireless; - No elevator, no one to help with bags As a female, the staff did not help to make me feel comfortable checking in when I did (11pm) VERY basic amenities for the price Somewhat far away from airport

Ruth and Sandra McConnell: 10 August 2006; 9.8; + The free shuttle to the airport was terrific. It was very convenient and fast. The restaurant was very good and the waitress was very friendly.

Anonymous: 9 August 2006; 7.2; + Nice building, comfortable rooms; - Staff was rude and cold

Kelly van den Berg: 8 August 2006; 10; + The was plenty of assistance with my bags and the staff was very friendly and informative. In getting to the airport, we were able to do so in plenty of time to make our flight. The food was excellent and there was plenty of it also. In all my stay was wonderful and I could not have been more pleased; - I would have liked to have had a lift/elevator to get my daughter and my bags to the top floor but since assistance was provided that was a small item to worry about.

Schrader: 7 August 2006; 6.6; + extremely helpful desk clerk ( girl) who helped me getting in contact with the adac germany letting me use the hotelphone free of charge

Anonymous Niet voor herhaling vatbaar: 24 October 2011; 5.8; + was het goedkoopste binnen de redelijke klasse op dat moment; - op de website stond dat vervoer van schiphol naar het hotel was inbegrepen; niet dus. Er stopte geen enkele hotelbus. We hebben met veel andere mensen meer dan 1 uur staan wachten en regelmatig naar het hotel gebeld. Er zou zo een busje aan komen...... Ze maken niet waar wat ze beloven en zo sta je in de nacht met een klein kind op de stoep bij Schiphol in de kou. Ik zou dit nooit meer boeken. Boek liever een hotel tegenover Schiphol. Bespaart je in elk geval veel ergernis. De lobby enz. is aan de kleine kant. Het is een hotel om te ovenachten en niet veel meer dan dat.

Anonymous Goed hotel, zeker voor doelgroep reizigers.: 5 September 2011; 7.0; + zeer vriendelijk personeel. goed ontbijt en genoeg keuze. terrasje voor gasten.; - wastafel aan onderkant niet schoon. hoofdbord bed hier en daar vlekken. een te klein douchegordijn. kraan wastafel zat los.
